That House

There's a lonely little home
Way out in the back
Just a shady bungalow
Off that beaten track
That where the beer taps
Never stopped flowing
They always got a pound on stash
And twenty more growing
And any passersby
Don't even realize
All the secrets that it's keepin'
Hidden from their eyes

There's a party starting there
Every single day
Each so fun
That everyone
Who came decides to stay
Songs are played 
That no one knows
They sing along 
And tap their toes
And any passersby
Won't even realize
That every door is unlocked
And they're all welcome inside

Well there's a lonely little home
I'd show you if I could
But all I really know
Is that it's somewhere in the woods
And why would I be here
In a world so thick with fear
If I could join the endless fun
With the rest who disappeared

Following Fools

As Vandals dismantle
the fragile framework of a lie.
The quiet deny it
let it gather and grow inside.
But first and much worse
are the few who are tempted to try.
To tinker and tamper
with proof that would show you the light.

Pleased to pull the wool
over your squinted eyes.
Teach you all about fear
and how it's better to hide.
Praise be to the fool
prisons for the rest.
People getting fat
the others just starved to death

Those trying are lying
but mostly to them selves.
We wont see a world peace
when nothing we do helps.

Revolt, rebuild, repeat
the only solution I see.
Revolt, rebuild, repeat
there's no other way to be free.

Entropy

Endlessly expanding engine of time
Navigate the universe down history's line
Tirelessly take them through each of their lives
Relentless trend, your creations are everything contrived
Order's only observed in old things we find
Products probably predating your present state of mind
Your chaotic ways make the years seem like days, I owe you all I call mine.

Two Feet Deep

In a shallow grave,
Should I die, would you bury me?
Somewhere by the oceans bay.
With the earth barely hiding me.
In a shallow grave,
In the sand still wet from the sea.
Tell the ocean to send it's waves,
So the barnacles can feed off me.

And should I sink in to the sand,
Please do not shed a tear.
For when I'm not a living man,
I will not disappear.
Should these feet start peeking out,
Of the soft eroding beach;
Take comfort knowing I'm about,
To go home to the sea.

In a shallow grave,
Toss away that old husk of me.
No longer that body's slave.
Just living on in memories
In a shallow grave,
Please, make sure it's not too deep.
Watch me as I'm whisked away,
Because none of us are here for keeps.

And when I sink in to the sand,
Please do not shed a tear.
For once I'm not a living man,
I will not disappear.
And when these feet start peeking out,
Of the soft eroding land;
Take comfort knowing I'm about,
To head out just as planned.

This Great Ordeal

Once I was naive
I thought I knew it all but I was wrong
Now I can see
There never was an answer all along

There are always more questions to be asked when answers are revealed
There will never be an end to this great ordeal

Cause don't you know we act like ants
The gears of a clock
We all do the dance like bees when they talk
I would like to think there's more
Than just what we see
But I rather waste my time on what's around me

There are always more questions to be asked when answers are revealed
There will never be an end to this great ordeal

And one day we may see the end
Of this great race
As some of us transcend
The rest get replaced
I invite you to evolve
Unite with machines
All your problems could be solved
By modifying your genes

Two Feet

I walk
On my
Own road
With my
Two feet
I will not stray
And when
I get
To where
I go
I know
I can not stay

For my
Two feet
Are restless here
As they
Will always be
So my
Two legs
Will go and throw
Them out
In front of me

Well,
Since I've lived out of my back pocket
I've been fine on my own
And just as long as I keep walking
I'm never far from home
My two feet will take me where
I always want to be
It's never here and just too far
for you
to follow me
